Many
parents often lament that their children are doing badly or failing
their Mathematics despite the fact that they are attending tuition classes.
Could
it be that your child’s method of revising Mathematics is not
leading to improvement? What does revision in Mathematics mean? Doing
more and more assessment books or practice papers? Does your child’s
weekly Math learning involve a unit review, going over the topics, ideas and concepts covered in the current unit? Does your child’s preparation
for examinations entail an extensive review of the whole semester or the whole year of work over a short 2 weeks?
If
your answer is yes to any of the above, then I will suggest this strategy known as cumulative review.
The cumulative review that I am going to
suggest is what I view as a learning tool that the parent and child
can work on together at home. Yes, you can be involved even without
knowing how to solve the mathematics problems yourself.
